Here is an account of two men who were converted by the Theotokos. It's amazing.

She is "our Most Holy, Most Pure, Most Blessed and Glorious Sovereign Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary!"

Just as she nourished the Body of Christ in our Lord's lifetime on earth, so too does she now constantly nourish the Body of Christ that is the Church with the sustenance of her prayers and intercessions, her miraculous icons and appearances on earth, her shower of miracles in response to our prayers and in many ways that we are not even aware of.
